What motherboard suits Core Ultra 5 235T, and how should power delivery, memory, and ports be balanced?

  The 235T runs LGA1851, 800-series chipsets, and DDR5. B860 is the balanced low-power default, H810 works for minimal expansion, and Z890 is for more M.2/PCIe, USB, or tuning.

  Verify CPU support and BIOS, then weigh GPU, storage, networking, and VRM cooling. Sustained compiling or rendering is the only reason to reserve power headroom; if the board can remove power limits, judge cooling and delivery by measured sustained package power rather than the T suffix alone.
